The Festival welcomes the public under the short but explosive rain with diverse events and prestigious guests.

The Festival has had an intense start to the week with the presence of torrential rain and events that have captivated both children and lovers of the genre. With the participation of outstanding talents from the film scene, the festival has reinforced its commitment to the diversity of formats and artistic perspectives surrounding the horror genre.

After a start to the week with the Horror Short Film Festival for High Schools and the first double session with folk horror as the protagonist with The Devil's Bath Heresy, the last of which featured the presence of its protagonist, Anneke Sluiters, TerrorMolins continued with a program full of diverse proposals. 

On Tuesday the 12th the little ones were able to enjoy the children's film workshop of a practical and educational experience exploring the creation of horror films in an adapted and enjoyable way. 

The festival also featured the talk “Behind the camera”, organized by the FX Barcelona Film School, who revealed the secrets of the filmmaking craft that make stories come to life on the big screen. In addition, the conference on horror and illustration with George Shepherd Dani Noblon from JOSHUA attracted numerous fans of art and visual storytelling.

Cinema, literature and art merge at the Festival in a week of strong emotions.

The presentation of the book "“The curse of the full moon. Lycanthropy and other bestial transformations in fiction” was another highlight that allowed attendees to delve into the world of metamorphoses in literature and cinema.

On Tuesday night, the festival closed the day with a double session with the Irish The Ghost, the first horror film shot entirely in Gaelic and featuring its director, John Farrelly, and the leading actor, Tom Kerrisk, and Frewaka.
